Hyperlink didn't work... a surprise?
MSI wind, my new handheld.
I got my first one in may but it broke because I OCed it so now I got my working one two months ago and can saftly say its the best thing I ever got myself. I use it all the time. It cant be explained how a gamer's lifestyle can be enhanced with a netbook. I laugh at your pettylaptops that weigh more than my dog. Unless its got a 8600 or better in it then you kick ass but still need a netbook. I undusted Morrowind and got Dawn of war for it. They run nicely. Also I've been playing some intense Liberal Crime Squad and Dwarf Fortress, freeware from Bay 12 games. There uber complex and take a while to learn. LCS is unforgiving but relativly simple. About 3 hours of learning. Dwarf Fortress requiers the wiki and about 48 hours of learning but its a rewarding game. DF takes a suprising amount of CPU power so expect lags.

Are sequals all that bad?
I watch a lot of zero punctuation and I heard Yathzee complain about the last three E3s about how all games are sequels. For once I disagree with that comment. I mean its not as if companies were creative but when a good consept commes out its rarly executed right so why try to comme up with new ones when the intial was fine. I played Mass Effect, and loved the concept and world but Bioware just didn't nail that one (no more vehicul section, in ANY game ecept racing games, gta, halo and UT (because they know what to do with it)). I'm looking forward to Mass Effect 2 because I know that they'll fix that not being EA. Wait doesn't EA own Bioware... ah f*ck it theyre Canadian so thus awesome. It lets develepers polish there ideas to make a better product. Gemes like GTA SAcome from experence with GTA3 and VC. I didn't like GTA4 it fealt like a step back from Rockstar. Gears 2, Assassin Creed 2 ( the first was such a good example of 'good idea, bad exacution' that even if the game is a quarter as good as the preview than it'll be a sucess),Naruto broken bond (its a good fighting game and well the show is kind of entertaining). Of corse devs then to try new things in sequels the please the crowds but then they end up at square one were the game news polish. The worst atrocities happen when develepers change like. Call of duty 3-4-5 were atrocities churmed up by Treyarch to scrap our Call of duty 2. Far Cry 2 wasn't as fun as I convinced myself it was. It just wasnt a Crytek game.
More games should be realsed as expancion packs or like ad-ons since they could tweak parts of the game to make a better total realease.
Halo screens and Red vs Blue
I through a few Halo 3 screesns in a Halo album if you want to check it out.
I'm either the Yellow guy or the scout helmet guy.

Red vs blue has new episodes. Reconstrution's sequeal: Relocation follows up on the epiloge in Reconstrutions last episode. More random adventures from the worst soldiers ever.
1 It has come to this. My PC runs on garbage.2 Halo. 3 Achiements=$
This isnt some ecological revolution in witch my PC is powered by burning celerons (ah sweet smell)... what was i saying... oh yeah. With all the **** break downs I had last year ( PSU after PSU) here is the coup de grace; my 200$ (realy thats what its worth) Asus P4P800 fried draging my P4 3Ghz and 1 gig of DD2 400mhz RAM down with it. I guess its my fault because prior to that I tried to OC my RAM but of coarse it only happened because they were old... Ok its my fault so what?I'm 16 and I can still pity my parents into paying for the repairs. I lost my job what do you want me to do, damn the global ecomy going to hell.
Anyway,its been fixedlast weekend (been broken since december). Now I have a 1.5Ghz sempron and 512mb of RAM (why couldnt it die protecting my 1 gig). I HATE THIS RUBBISH!!! Whydo I still get my PC fixed by other people? I could get better stuff a sempron and a mobo shouldnt cost 60$ but since im not paying i cant do itmy way. I've been playing colinization(1950s edition) and Fallout 2, thats how much it sucks.I not even bothering setting my PC up because I just dont care anymore, my only worthwile part (my gpu) will die probly next week so it doesnt matter.
Everthing in the PC univers is cheap and breaks. I was forced to cut corners all my life but no more, this time Im going for good stuff ALL new building it myself and getting lifetime warrenties and the best brands.
Oh yeah and Im never OCing again it costed me 500$ over the year to get my 0.6ghz that btw in benchs wasnt there.

Oh and I got Halo 3. The fedx guy is cheap I get it 1 day before I leave on vacation so I was playing intensly for 12 hours, 8 on matchmaking, I was kind of sucking that day (sensitivity at 10 woups) so I played on training, I feel bad killing a total stranger to the game. The dudes walking along not looking at his radar and bam assasanation. I feel like a dirt bag after so I kind of spend my time dual the major with a noob account so he can feel better about himself buy destroying less experienced players. Its fun to piss them off by winning. But beware I have little pitty for anyone in a ranked match. I made sergent in 8 hours, not bad.

Am I the only one that realiased? Achiements makes you buy more games.
Some will say ah buy it extense replayability, yeah but once! Don't you see most people will play through game the achiement gathering way and then... well I got all the achiements I dont need to play anymore. You then buy more games. I realized this by talking with gamewarrior the other day;
he was talking about how xbox was boring now he done everything and wii keeped being fun. I noticed that with PC too. I played through Crysis a dozen times and still enjoy the moments, when I never replayed a level of Gears or Far Cry for the fun of it, I played the game maybe twice to get all achiements thats it. After that its off to the store to buy s new realese.
